On Thursday, November 10, 2016, the Dinwiddie County Chamber of Commerce held its annual mixer.  The event, held at Richard Bland College’s Barn Theatre, was well attended by county officials, school board members, RBC President Dr. Debbie Sydow and her husband, Harry, members and non-members alike.   Guests enjoyed the sounds of Zack Artis, a self-taught guitarist well known to the Tri-Cities area and enjoyed delicious hors d’ourves prepared by Ella Dickinson and Camden’s Dogtown Market.  Guests also had FUN in the photo booth provided by Group Booth of Petersburg (owner Matt McCoy). The winners of the 2016 BEST OF THE BEST AWARDS were also announced……
